@JamesTheTweeter@Ethanfracisco Solely based on the recent debate, Reynoso came across as spineless. I don't see him furthering any real progressive agendas beyond what the status quo approves. Claire would be part of the left coalition with folks like Rabb et al., who will fight the do nothing dems.
@Ethanfracisco Reynoso has name recognition (borough president). Same reason Cuomo was leading big early in the mayor race. Claire, on the other hand, was leading in the May Emerson poll.
i really hope folks in hasan’s community/leftists/socialists, if you’re able, do some work offline. vote, volunteer, protest, organize, etc. i feel like a lot of his viewers get caught up online and think he's the movement and this singular force. he's not. we all are, together.
@juliabracadabra@RUser02361 Jenn asked her if she had IVF, Ashley said she didn’t. When Jenn asked her if she had sex with that nerd, she said she can’t say anything about that as that demon’s lawyers are up her ass constantly
@juliabracadabra Listen, let’s be normal about this. We can both be skeptical of her and not chastise her for this remark. Do I think Hasan intended to be misogynistic and put her down? No. However, she’s justified in her feelings and we don’t have to hound her.
@OsseChi@AlexBores Skeptical about Bores but Chi is endorsing him I'm willing to be charitable. However, I am still super disappointed by his lack of clarity regarding Palestine.
@BaileePolitics The majority of American are not transphobic. Yet the dem party capitulates to the heinous right wing talking points, saying we should be “normal”. TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS and when articulated clearly (like Steyer), people can see that it IS the “normal” position.
@barbarismcrit@LinkofSunshine They seem to consistently have dog shit politics. Supports Scott Weiner too. The kind of cognitive dissonance needed to support Espaillat despite being a high information voter is nauseating.
@whatkamisays@majorityfm starts two hours before. I recently started listening to @NPR on Spotify— they upload daily news in the morning and do 5min news updates every hour of the day. @nytimes podcasts are good too.
Both Asmongold and Hasan finished their streams around the same time, but they ended with two very different messages.
I thought it was worth sharing so you can see the contrast.
@big_merg@ostonox@NathanJRobinson Like any coalition this one too has a lot of idiots. I just wished we were collectively more responsive in relegating this kind of behavior out of discourse.
@ostonox@NathanJRobinson I can't find the humor in posting fake polls. There are people out there who care about this election and this kind of tomfoolery doesn't help anyone.
@biggusbruhus@zeteo_news@stclairashley To add to this: her conversation with @mattxiv was very good. She actually showed remorse and introspection. Again, I’m completely empathic to skepticism of her given she has a lot of mending to do.
@biggusbruhus@zeteo_news@stclairashley Two folds: 1) helps get insight into the right-wing media machine; 2) a high profile case of someone seeking redemption. I understand being skeptical but there is an opportunity for charity as well. We need to welcome people wanting to change, that should be core to our politics.
